  • The Transformative Power of Coaching: "Without Fear, Change Your Life" On the Gold Coast and Zoom.

    In the sacred soil in which healing begins, I remind those who walk with me on this journey: " Without fear, change your life. " This is not a mantra but an incantation—a call to the transformation that exists beyond your desire to confront that which exists within and to yield to who you truly are. Craig has been a professional coach for over 10 years. And has worked with Industry leaders and those on a spiritual path. His intuitive and learned approach to coaching is both unique and highly successful. As a Gold Coast Coach he also works with clients worldwide through Zoom. Walk the confident life you truly desire. The Journey Within Healing is not something that can be done easily. It's a journey that requires courage, honesty, and the heart to go deep into the very soul of a person. As one client described: "If you're willing to be totally honest with yourself, and have the heart to change, heal, become who you truly are, Spirit has led you to the correct place. This is not a band-aid or surface issue journey. This is about peeling away the layers of conditioning, trauma, and fear to connect to the successful being that's within you. A Sacred Partnership During our time together, we establish a place of trust, and ensure we're understanding your coaching from your  worldview. It's from this sanctuary that healing occurs. As another client penned: "Craig restored me on so many levels and really opened my eyes to so many things I was either avoiding or just unaware of. He works with complete integrity, trust, and unconditionally." Each session is unique , guided by Spirit and what you need in that moment. Whether through breathwork, energy healing, or intuitive guidance, NLP or hypnotherapy, we address the underlying issues that hold you back from growing and flourishing. Embracing the True Self The most profound change occurs when individuals come back to their true selves.  As Debbie conveyed: "For the first 25 years of my life, deep down I was never really sure who I was, until I met Craig. Since my sessions with Craig, I have never felt better and so sure of who I am." This reunion is not necessarily about self-awareness; it's about reclaiming your power, your voice, and your purpose. The Power of NLP and Hypnotherapy To facilitate these profound shifts, I combine the techniques of Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) and clinical hypnotherapy. NLP allows us to reframe self-limiting habits and beliefs, tapping into the subconscious mind, so that clients can overcome self-induced limitations. Hypnotherapy allows us to access deeper states of consciousness, accessing the root of emotional and behavioral challenges. As described on ICH Mind , clinical hypnotherapy is an empowering method that guides you into deep relaxation and focused attention, enabling direct communication with your subconscious deeper mind. This method releases or reframes deep-set beliefs and habits, leading to profound changes in attitude and behavior. ichmind.com.au Ripple Effects of Transformation The ripple effect of this work is not only with the individual. Families heal, relationships become more intimate, and communities thrive. As Vania explained: "Our journey started with me, so broken due to what we went through with our son. With a 10-week program, we set my strength as impenetrable. My transformation has reshaped my entire life, professionally and personally." When a single person gets better, it's a ripple effect, and individuals are inspired and encouraged by their presence. Your Invitation to Transformation If you're feeling the desire to shift, to heal, to grow, trust that you are not alone. We can do this together, shedding the layers no longer required of you and stepping into the radiance of your authentic self. Remember, the path to transformation begins with one step, a commitment to live boldly, fearlessly, and embrace the life you were always meant to  have. To  discover how we can work together on your path to healing, visit www.craigdavey.com.au or call me personally on 0404 477 522 to schedule a session. With the integration of coaching, NLP, and hypnotherapy, we unlock the door to profound and lasting change. Your journey to self-discovery and empowerment is just beginning.

  • Blades of Light, Colombian Lemurian Crystals

    I love the crystal world, these wondrous treasures offered to us through a millennia of growth and wisdom. Last year I was offered form Colombia some 'Colombian Lemurian' Crystals, Never heard of them before, and I love Lemurian crystals, we have an amazing collection of them at home and in our shop. However, they were $50 each USD! and were quite small at only 3 to 8cm length each. And as much as I like them I was confounded as to who would buy them once I had placed a retail margin on them. So I respectfully declined, I was, unfortunately not able to buy Just a few. This year 2022 I was fortunate again to be offered these magnificent beauties. And I grabbed them offering thanks to the universe with grace and humility to be the keeper albeit for a short time of these stunning crystals. These Blades of light*(see note1) are fabulous, found near the Emerald mines in Colombia their ancient energy is palatable and their frequency undeniably extremely high. I have been working with them for a few months now and found them to be very heart centred, they are amazing in meditation to raise your elevation, and seem to 'want' to assist you growing stronger with each session offering more connection as time progressed. They are for the most part water clear, and carry the striations that a Brazilian Lemurian has. They are not hazy or milky as their Brazilian cousins, nor do they have the pinkish hue often found in many Lemurian quartz due to the hematite they are formed with. Blades of light crystals seem to offer a majestic clarity of mind, and while I rarely go into this, I feel 'healthy' while working with them, as though they are designed to bring clarity in the body and mind and soul. Such wonder and awe! These rare crystals seem to elevate the consciousness of humanity. There is so much information coming from the Galactic space into the Earth and these Blades of light assist to raise our vibration and offer a divine love that works in harmony and synch with these new energies apparent to those of us that seek it. As a tool to work with they are amazing teachers, showing us the clarity needed to follow our 'Life Path' In Ifa we know that sometimes we are 'off path' working with the Orisa and using these Blades of Life crystals, creates a stronger bond with our knowing, that direction that we seek as humans to move onwards and forwards in our life. Clearing the way to walk with grace, with clarity and with a conscious love for self and humanity. I have found great connection and clarity using them as a connection while channelling also. They are undoubtedly powerful allies to hold and grow with. A laser crystal assists us to pinpoint directions in our lives, being able to connect with these Colombian Lemurian Blades of Light crystals while healing and growing through lifes changes is such an honour and may I say a privilege, as many of them are lasers. I have begun creating Talismans with them. And just wow! They call for complete awareness of the task (not that I do not) but I feel humbled working with them, providing clear thoughts and observations of the world around me as we create together, something powerful and magical for the specific keeper of the Talisman. In ceremony I feel their energy clearly and potently. They 'sing' if you like to me and tell a story of old and new, of movement and growth as the piece is, bit by bit bought together creating wonderment, healing and growth. Our ancestors and guides love that these crystals offer an abundance of life and clarity to us, the wisdom of Lemuria is to be found within also, and if you hold them with pure intent, as indeed these crystals offer purity, our mind clears enough to hear what we so often miss out on through either not trusting ourselves and in turn the guidance offered to us. Opening the portals to wisdom and dimensions we can sometimes miss. This expansion is a blessing and the connection enlightening. I feel a strong connection with the heart chakra when using and working with Colombian Blades of Life crystals. But undoubtedly they are a crystal of higher consciousness and it is here at the Crown chakra we know and connect, seek and discover the wisdom of the new energies and of life itself. They align all chakras as their energy and frequency are so pure and potent. Colombian Lemurian Blades of Light crystals are a gift to us for the new era of light and knowing, connecting, Healing feeling and loving. Sovereignty is found in knowing self and awareness of our surrounds. As we grow through these high vibrational times the are a magnificent ally and a monumental assistant to those working to connect with the advancement of humanity with love , grace and wisdom. Clearing the way to connection with spirit, and enhancing our gifts to share with the world. As with all 'rare earth' crystals they are not common, there are some found in other parts of the world including China that look the same, these are not 'bad' crystals, they just do not have such a high frequency. Be aware if purchasing them that they will call to you and if that call is not one of higher frequency they may not be authentic Colombian Lemurian crystals or Blades of light. I am sure you will "know' they are not cheap as a rare crystal so if they are then be aware they may not be what they seem. With deep gratitude and thanks I recognise your love and sovereignty, thankyou for taking the time to stop in and read this blog. Much love and blessings to you and yours, Craig. *Note1 I do not claim to be the originator of the term 'Blades of Light' as I found it while searching for information earlier on when I discovered these beauties. it is such a fitting term and offer thanks for this name.

  • Creation of a Sacred Tool- Talismans, Talking Sticks, Wands and Staffs. Part1 The Wood

    The Wood, There are many names and much ancient lore attributed to the spirit of trees and plant life. The most commonly known is Dryad. The Dryad, an Elven energy is typically known as the living spirit or sprite that lives within the Oak tree, however they are known to inhabit many if not all trees. Many would have you believe that once they tree has discarded a branch or the tree felled that the ‘spirit’ leaves that part which is no longer ‘alive’. In my experience this is not the case. Along with love and connected enchantment it remains to walk another journey with me to work with you the keeper of the piece. Alongside me as I create are my guides and Ancestors, I am guided by Myliard an ancient wizard and healer, with guidance and strength from Eyean (Eahhn) both who I channel regularly. Both sit and guide my work and creations. And of course Anubis, who since my birth has held, guided and protected me. I offer deep gratitude and grace for their assistance and love. I have found that by listening and feeling carefully, these beautiful gifts often show themselves in particular pieces. Strongly, I feel they are waiting for me to come along and pick them up to be used to co-create magic within my creations. They talk to me. Truly I can walk through the bush or along the beach searching for this ‘Live wood” and come home empty handed, yet happy to have shared space in nature. At other times I will feel one piece or for that matter, many. On rare occasions I take a branch or limb from a tree. I was reticent at first many years ago to cut, however over time began to recognise the call of the spirit within the tree, a permission given. At these times I sit quietly and talk to the tree, giving thanks for their gifts and allow them to guide me as to where to cut how much to remove. This ritual for me is beautiful and the connection is enhanced. I feel empowered and truly a part of all around me more so than generally. I have cried and laughed, been humbled and grow stronger with perfect love and trust of the nature of my connection with these Dryads. I am blessed to be allowed to work magically with them and honour this connection deeply. They carry and connect all aspects of each piece I create for you, the keeper of each magically crafted tool. This is one reason why my Talismans and tools are felt so strongly by those who use and wear them. I look forward to sharing this magic and enchantment with you. I have found that by listening and feeling carefully, these beautiful gifts often show themselves in particular pieces. Strongly, I feel they are waiting for me to come along and pick them up to be used to co-create magic within my creations. They talk to me. Truly I can walk through the bush or along the beach searching for this ‘Live wood” and come home empty handed, yet happy to have shared space in nature. At other times I will feel one piece or for that matter, many. Thank you for taking a moment to sit with me.

  • Creation of a Sacred Tool- Talismans, Talking Sticks, Wands and Staffs. Part 2- The Crystals

    The Crystals Humanity has, since the dawn of time utilised crystals and gemstones. This affinity has remained to this day. The use of these gifts with and within Amulets and Talismans has been ongoing. Some of the oldest Amulets have been dated back 60,000 years discovered in gravesites from Switzerland and Belgium. The Egyptians used Turquoise, Emerald, Lapis Lazuli, Carnelian and Clear Quartz for their adornments and protection from the physical, along within protection against evil spirits. In Ancient Sumeria crystals were used for ritual magick as well as magickal potions and tinctures. It is from the Ancient Greeks that we can attribute a number of properties of crystals. They believed Clear quartz was the result of frozen water within the depths of the earth that eventually became solid. “Ice” is derived from the Greek word for Crystal Quartz. From Australia to Europe and between, cultures have their own lore regarding different crystals and stone. It is interesting to notice that many of these ancient cultures had similar uses and definitions though they are so far apart. Many cultures believed them to be in fact sentient and held different energies. It is here I begin the story of my Talismans and sacred tools. Until recently I relied solely on how the crystal or stone felt to me, how it is guided to be used within one of my creations. For me this is the most important factor, ‘Does it FEEL’ right? Occasionally I will reference a crystal if I feel the need to look further into something that is calling me, this too is guided and another part of weaving the story of the piece. When I step out of my ego and into pure connection with spirit I listen and feel my way into what crystals should and should not be used within a specific piece. Not once has this guidance ever failed me. I learnt early that if I used what I thought rather than what I felt or intrinsically knew, something would happen to the piece during its creation, It would not set or I would somehow drop and break the piece…I learned fast to trust what my guidance proposed! Each crystal has its own feel, a resonance or vibration that has an effect with and within the human body and energy field or light body. The crystals, through ritual and ceremony are woven into the fabric of intention set for the talisman or tool. This weaving of energies assists to create a spiralling connection of energetic wonder. Magick is in the air. The Deva of each crystal sits with you. The crystals hold wisdom and protect from negative influences. They are woven together to walk your journey with you and this wisdom is on tap for when you feel it, it becomes a part of you if you like. Opening the channels to knowing and learning, safety and protection. Crystals are well known as part of wholistic healing experience, when created in the process of talisman or tool correctly this healing experience is enhanced and becomes a friend for life. Once again thank you for sharing your time with me and that this assists you on your own personal journey. Blessings, Craig. © Craig Davey 2021 #CraigDavey #Magic #Dryads #talisman #amulet #AnubisCreations #talkingstick #Wand #magic wand #TheCrystalcave.com.au #Staff #ceremonialstaff #pagen #smudgestick #Witch #protection #love #abundance #sovereignty #crystals #rune

  • The Lions Gate Portal 2020

    This is a time of birth of creativity. A time of openings and closure, where today, tomorrow open to us when we find balance within The conjunction of the sun with Sirius (our energetic sun) known as Dog Days in ancient times as Sirius is with the constellation Canis Major and rose with the sun during this time. or more commonly as the Lions Gate portal as it ends on the 8th of the 8th Oriens belt aligns also with the pyramids of Giza as well as Sirius at this time. This is a time of powerful magic, where we can journey into the world of abundance so often sought after. What is it you wish to bring into your life? Be cautious at this time, as the magic is real and the potency great. Sophia stands waiting for your search into your inner wisdom, allowing balance through the storm and light or knowing into the darkness. As you are likely to receive what you ask for, which is not always what you want! As the gifts you already have to awaken if you so choose. The giant awakes within. The physical body, walks this path with you of course and may just do what it needs to remain grounded, though I do not feel that those challenges aligned with ascension will arise so the aches and pains may not be present, as the energies and light activations are narrow and ‘fixed’ So do not feel the need to hold pain and alignment together right now if that is what you have experienced in the past. Although this time may show pressure in the sacral area, as it is the space of the cosmic womb, of birth and new beginnings. Heal the wounds of old and begin anew, even go deeper into past lives could prove fruitful. This time of incredible and powerful light energy and codes is a magnificent opportunity for all mankind to grow together in harmony if chosen. And though there is also powerful dark energies at this time,do not fear them, stand in your truth and grow in stature speaking out and speaking up for your own needs and wants . Prepare for the unexpected, of new beginnings along with sudden and often unexpected endings within different parts of your life. Trust your inner voices, listen to and take note of what you prophecise within your dreams as they can be more prophetic at present. The spiral of life will lead you into spaces of deja vu, where you immediately manifest, altering the reality you now know. Transforming and transitioning into a creative and wonderfully positive time for you. Begin a journey into the rest of the year, one of accelerated awakening within our divine consciousness allowing the truths of our souls to ignite and burst forward. On a global scale it is a time of releasing outdated and outmoded practices, beginning the dismantling of these ways, and bringing forth the new energies of unification and connection to divine guidance, changing what we know into what we feel so that the issues of stability and security we have begin to dissipate and a wholeness of life for all begins. A time for birth and re-birth of knowing and transformation. Are you ready? You will not fall, you are supported. We are loving the energy of our Lemurian seed crystals at this time they seem to be having an awakening of their own. Much love and Blessings, Craig.

  • Without Fear, Change Your life

    Without Fear, Change Your Life. I don't even remember when I started using this phrase. What I do know is that for a very long time I have lived by it. I have taught by it. And, I have learned from it. FEAR, the great change maker. It relies on you not trusting you, It relies on you listening to the fear that others share. And very often it relies on hiding in the rear passages of our mind, of the internet, hiding in plain sight as news, social awareness even as we move forward it hides within the very technology that we covet to assist us to learn from, thus supposedly empowering us to make decisions based on information not fear. However, Fear is an energy like all things, and it feeds on your thoughts and actions. The dark forces that occupy our world hide "Behind the light" so they remain unseen yet are ever present. Knowledge is the key, research is the answer, but maybe not the research you know, rather following the feelings you have about any given situation. For this is your super power. You see what the dark does not want you to do is feel. In fact if you look at our society today everything that is new is designed to 'assist' you, to 'help' you to 'save' you time. It is designed to distance you from your true feelings or knowings. Automating our responses without you even knowing, it is the frames we constantly peer into that are in fact created not to help you grow but to dehumanise you to the point of feeling that you have the answer because it is programmed into your sub-conscious having you believe that the thoughts are yours and they become truths rather than something to be inspected or checked. These frames are the so called smart phones, the television, movie theatres filled with so much information that we begin to believe we are smart and in control of our lives. Yet we are being dehumanised led to believe that this technology that is destroying communities, families, desensitising us. Slowly the darkness creeps into our every day lives and yet we only see the light. As it hides so cleverly behind. The darkness would have us believe that it is for our very best interests to follow to obey not to question. And we are doing just that. Think about the last time you actually had a discussion, a real discussion with someone with an opposing point of view. A discussion where both sat and listened, where both sides actually took stock of the other, without fear of being bettered. Without falling on the sword of shame or blame. Of accusations and counter accusations of conspiracy or wrong. Discussions are the power we have to live without fear. IF we dare to open them up, they bring new ideas and thoughts, they question the narrative that we hear on a daily basis. And they supply us with fresh patterns to perhaps research or ponder. This is how we grow, how we learn, how we live without fear, because we question and grow. You see behind the light, and when you see behind the light you cannot 'unsee' it. And once truly exposed the darkness losses it's power, therefore freeing you to think your own thoughts, delve into what you feel, have 'felt' or just know. Allowing you to create your future, becoming sovereign in your own space. Automatically aligning you to see more at first glance, trusting your intuition or gut feeling,(we all have it, thing we are told it doesn't really exist (fear again!)) This provides you with a new perspective, one without fear, as the 'new' knowledge empowers you to live your life your way, not fearing the thoughts or deeds of others but embracing them and all that is different, then being discerning and deciding what is and what is not for you. This calming energy is strength, it is allowing for you to grow through muck and blossom like the Lilly, burning through the veil that shows as 'light' and seeing the darkness that lies behind it. For aeons mankind has been led, hand fed fear, be it from religion, corporations that are paper but seen as something almost sentient, or those few that are hand in hand with the darkness that wield immense power and control over our lives through their ownership of lands, media. Many live their lives under the illusion of freedom but are in fact indentured slaves little more than cogs in the wheel of another life. The illusion is real and the fear is real. Yet on seeing it we are free and can work with others to emancipate our family friends and colleagues. Fear is designed to keep you small, to allow you the semblance of freedom. Live life without fear by recognising that the dark is present and when you see it then choose to work through it, not giving it your energy but starving it. As it is the only way to be truly free. Starve fear by seeing it, and move forward. Never before has the phrase "Without Fear Change Your Life" been more a more powerful ally. See fear for what it really is, control. And free you life today. Much love and blessings, Ase. Craig

  • Creation of a Talisman

    After well over a decade of creating talismans and wands for others this month I was guided to finally create one for myself that would stay with me. This is the beginning of that story

  • Not just another day

    I'm kinda mellow today. You see, I feel everything and I love this! For me, for over a decade I have been able to discern what is and what isn't mine. So being what we call an empath is a huge plus and honor for me. I feel like I'm watching the world go by, yet still a part of it. I suppose what I am trying to say is, be mellow. There is power in calm. We are tribe albeit a global one. Yet we are distancing ourselves from one and other. I'm not talking about it need currently to self isolate. That is a necessity right now. Community, tribe, neighbors whatever you like to call it is the backbone of life. Sharing tales, communicating, being compassionate, knowing one and other allows us to see and feel from different perspectives. We grow this way, we unite this way. Sit back, look around, most of us have more than a very large number of our global community. Deep gratitude, not fear is what we should be showing in this time of crisis. AND THEN with fearless embodiment, we can move through this NOW moment. Rebuild our tribe and our worldwide community. Say hello to your neighbor, wave, smile, phone a friend, ask if anyone needs assistance and with grace, if you can, provide it. This NOW will pass, but the tomorrow we wish for can begin today. Deep gratitude and compassion to you all. And remember each day to remind yourself " I AM LOVE" 'Without Fear Change Your Life' Ase Craig ❤🧙‍♂️🤗❤🤗🧙‍♂️❤

  • 2020

    The year is 2020 A year destined for challenges. A year to certainly wash your hands often! Yet don't challenges make us stronger? wiser? We will learn from the current madness that it is through lack of leadership that we are being hosed down by fear and misinformation.....or lack of critical information. The riot of life, it's twists and turns are what makes us human. However, ignorance, greed and selfishness are also a human trait, ALONG with compassion, love and awareness. You need 2 weeks supply ....just in case they say, so why take a months or two? Energy is everything and what is happening in our beautiful country is lowering our vibration as a whole. Creating fear and hate, loathing and constant worry. We are at a point of a paradigm shift, for thousands of years it has been community and tribe that have supported each other. Yet as we are forced(yes, I mean forced) to separate from our neighbours our townsfolk and our countrymen and become more and more isolated within a sea of humanity we achieve only dissension and loneliness. And along with this fear, angst and a vibration that is so low it creates DISease. And we are heading down a pathway of separation from a reality that offers support, to one where we have NONE. Every man/woman for themselves.... it just doesn't and will not work. But it is appearing like dark magic before our very eyes. One world? Maybe in a utopia not discovered, but we are one human kind. So gather your tribe, love your neighbour. Feed your soul,your family and your community with honesty, kindness and compassion, it's so much easier and far more successful a way of life than the alternative. Make 2020 a year where that in hindsight your children and your childrens children will say wow, just wow, they did it! Wash your hands, feed your soul with higher vibrational information, And Without Fear Change Your Lives. Ase Craig. N.B Today we hear of the end of AAP for me it never seemed important. It's just a news carrier and scare monger along with other outlets. Yet on contemplation, I also see it as the last bastion of Australia being informed at its roots. They reported at a local and informative level, not on the social level we see from our friends on FB etc. They sat, watched and reported from small towns, local councils, community events and meetings, important court proceedings. It kept us as a country in the loop if you like with each other as a community. Now more than ever they are needed. It is a sad day indeed.

  • Soma Breath Work- Ignite Your Life

    The following information is an exert from here: ( https://www.somabreath.com/#a_aid=CraigDavey ) You can click on the link to learn more about Soma Breath or contact Craig directly via email from this site , or phoning 0404 477 522. for personal healing, groups, or business building. Soma can and will, and will, 'Without Fear,Change Your Life'. Introduction To Breath Control As a society, we have been educated into believing that we have no control over our autonomic nervous system and immune response. We have been fear-mongered into the idea that our mind and our body are totally separate from one another and that pharmaceutical drugs and medications are the only options for treating disease. This is not the real truth. The mind and body are connected far more than we acknowledge. Our health does not rely solely on drugs and medication. One of the biggest causes of illness in modern society is stress and our inability to effectively manage stress. The crazy thing is that sometimes those that suffer from stress know that they should be doing to better manage it, but they tend to avoid it. They say they are too busy and don’t have enough time, and then the continued stress escalates to a chronic condition later on. Our modern lifestyle sees us eating junk food, which is called junk food for a reason. It contaminates our physical bodies, and it also alters our energetic bodies by lowering our vibrational energy. How active are we as a society? The NHS (“ Physical activity guidelines for adults ”, n. d.) and WHO (“ Physical Activity and Adults ”, n. d.) recommends that the average adult (all the way from 18 to 64 years old!) should exercise for 150 minutes per week. We have 160 hours in a week, and we are recommended to use 2.5 of them for physical activity. Seems wrong, doesn’t it? We sit down while we travel to and from work, sit down at desks while we work, get home and sit down to eat, then walk all the way to the couch to watch television. 150 minutes of exercise will not, cannot, and simply does not counteract our sedentary lifestyles in the slightest. What does television do to nourish our well-being? It triggers our bodies’ stress response with fast flashes of blue light and scenes of violence depicted in detail in both fictional series and on the news. The diagram below shows the effects that chronic stress has on your body. How many people do you know in this situation or are heading there? We are far too stimulated every day. Stress hormones flood our bodies, our heart rate rises, we clench our jaw, tense our shoulder muscles, exacerbate that by staring down at our phones, hunched over. Our breathing changes. Pay attention to how often people sigh while they’re at their office desk. Notice how you clench your jaw when you catch up with the news. Thousands of years ago, our bodies ran from predators in the wild. Today, we run from deadlines, from uncomfortable truths, even from ourselves. When we physically run, our bodies generate that all important CO₂, but when we’re sitting at our desks, living our 9-5 lives, only running metaphorically, we don’t generate enough. And that means we deplete our CO₂ stores, and our tolerance for CO₂ decreases. Our health follows soon after. Subtly at first, but one day you realise you’re overweight, out of breath, your cholesterol is imbalanced, your blood pressure is high, maybe your joints ache, and maybe your body can’t produce certain hormones or enzymes. Breathing and breathwork is simple, but it takes dedicated practice to be good at it. If you want to be good at something, you have to do a little bit every day. Our bodies are super intelligent systems designed to self heal. When we learn how to harness the power of our breath using the Breath Control techniques, we encourage our body’s natural healing, balancing, and restorative functions. They cost nothing and they have no negative side effects as long as they’re practised safely. The SOMA Breath Control techniques can be used as a highly beneficial preventative measure to maintain good health, or they can be used to reduce (or even remove) side effects of a variety of health issues that are triggered by chronic and emotional stress, autoimmune diseases, and metabolic diseases such as obesity, diabetes, and heart disease. This training does not qualify you to practice as a health coach. If you would like to coach someone using Breath Control techniques with the aim to improve a health condition, it is entirely your responsibility to sufficiently educate yourself in this area. Please consider working alongside qualified health professionals. Please refer to the SOMA Breath Code of Ethics at the end of the online course for further guidance. Will Learn In Breath Control This module provides you with an introduction to Breath Control techniques. Knowing the Breath Control techniques is just like having your own Inner Pharmacy of healing, balancing, restorative, and rejuvenating medicines ready to use whenever you need them! All you need to do is harness the power of your breath. You can lower your blood pressure, reduce inflammation, activate stem cell and repair cell circulation, promote the growth of good bacteria, cleanse the bowels, balance the nervous system, and enter a flow state. All techniques are designed to be a complementary addition to existing treatment and not a replacement for them. Any dependency on medication can be reduced and may eventually fade away over time. You must seek medical advice before taking part in any alternative holistic practice such as SOMA Breathwork and Breath Control techniques. Please be aware that if someone would like to reduce or remove their dependence on pharmaceutical drugs using therapeutic breath techniques, they should always consult their doctor or healthcare provider to do so. Changing the dosage of prescription drugs can come with horrible side effects that can do more harm than good and it should always be done under the correct supervision of a qualified professional. All of the techniques inside SOMA Breath Control can be used to help with a variety of chronic health issues that are triggered by chronic and emotional stress, autoimmune diseases, and metabolic diseases such as obesity, diabetes, and heart disease. Some of the areas these techniques can be used for include: Lose weight Increase energy Heal wounds Enjoy deeper sleep Improve digestion Live longer Improve your mood Reduce anxiety and panic Reduce inflammation Reduce asthma Clear congestion and relieve sinus problems 3 Breathing Exercises To Activate Your Inner Pharmacy The following exercises are the 3 introductory Breath Control techniques. They are the most scientifically validated breathwork techniques based on Pranayama. The foundational Breath Control techniques are: REST/RELAX Turn off stress and lower heart rate and blood pressure. ENERGY Raise core body temperature, heart rate, and produce a controlled stress response to ward off illness and inflammatory diseases. BALANCE Balance and restore the nervous system, create harmony between the left and right hemispheres of your brain, improve heart health and HRV. Useful Tools For These Exercises The recommended (but not essential) tools for these exercises are: Pulse Oximeter This device measures oxygen saturation of your blood (SpO₂) and your heart rate. Normally a pulse oximeter is used by people who have difficulties breathing so that they can monitor their oxygen levels. Chronic hypoxia can cause serious health issues. However, it can also be used to measure intermittent hypoxia. A pulse oximeter measures your heart rate so that you can monitor how your resting heart rate drops as you become fitter and healthier over time. HRV chest strap and HRV app These will help you monitor your Heart Rate Variability (HRV). Your HRV indicates how adaptive and resilient your body is to stress. An app like SweetBeat HRV will give you a score for your HRV. In this particular app, a score between 70-100 is a sign of a good heart health, whereas a score of 40 or lower is a sign that you are struggling with stress and your heart health has room for improvement. Your score should improve gradually over time as you practice the Therapeutic Breath techniques. Rest/Relax In Pranayama, this technique is called Rechaka. What is this method used for? RELAXATION : Relieve stress and anxiety in a matter of minutes with this technique! Wind down and relax. GETTING INTO FLOW : Enter a calm flow state where you are relaxed and perfectly focussed with a clear mind. Increases productivity and decision making. DIGESTION : Switches on your parasympathetic nervous system so you can digest your food better. This exercise can be done before and after a meal. SLEEP : Helps you relax so that you can fall asleep faster. This is also one of the techniques used in The Awakening Journey. How to do the method: Sit in a comfortable position with your back straight. Inhale through your nose or mouth. Purse your lips and gently breathe the air out of your mouth very slowly as though you are breathing out through a straw. Relax all the muscles in your body as much as possible while you do this. As you exhale, imagine a wave of relaxation flowing down your body from the top of your head to the soles of your feet. Repeat the process for 5-10 minutes, several times a day if you like. The more you practice this, the more effective it is at lowering your blood pressure and heart rate. Once you have exhaled, you can also hold your breath for a few seconds before inhaling and repeating. Gradually increasing the breath hold time each time you repeat for an even deeper effect. The Evidence-Based Supporting Research: Improves symptoms of asthma ( Ritz & Roth, 2003 ; Lehrer et al., 2004 ). Effective treatment for COPD ( Fregonezi et al., 2004 ; Cabral et al., 2015 ). Relieves symptoms of depression ( Vedamurthachar et al., 2006 ). Reduces stress ( Mahour & Verma, 2017 ). Maintain a healthy weight with health cholesterol levels ( Prasad et al., 2006 ). Improves cognitive functioning ( Sharma et al., 2014 ). Energy In Pranayama, this technique is called Mula Bandha. What is this method used for? This is one of the techniques used in The Awakening Journey. ENERGY BOOST : Increase your metabolism slightly and boost your adrenaline levels for more energy. MOOD LIFT : Dopamine and serotonin will also be produced, which can improve mood. ANTI-INFLAMMATORY : The adrenaline boost will also release natural steroids that have and anti-inflammatory effect on the body. RAISE BODY TEMPERATURE : When combined with breath holding, it induces a fever-like response in the body that can suppress and ward off infections. It can also help you stay warm in cold climates or ice baths. CAUTION : This technique can also raise your blood pressure slightly, but then cause a drop in both heart rate and blood pressure. Use with caution and very gradually if you suffer from high blood pressure. How to do the method: Sit comfortably in an upright position with your back straight. Tightly contract your pelvic floor muscles (Mula Bandha). Hold the contraction for as long as you feel comfortable and watch your heart rate go up on your monitor by around 20-30 BPM. Alternatively, place one hand on your chest and feel your heart rate increase. Gently release and relax the muscles and watch a drop in heart rate – even below your normal resting heart rate – for a few moments. If you hold your breath in while you contract your muscles it will enhance the effect and you will also feel a rise in body temperature. Note: To increase the energetic charge do 10-15 cycles of rhythmic breathing at a 2:2 or 4:4 rhythm at 60-120 bpm and then do the technique. The Supporting Evidence-Based Research: Improves lung function, comparable to the lung function of athletes ( Prakash et al., 2007) , when combined with other Pranayamic techniques. Improves bladder function ( Patil et al., 2012 ). Improves sex drive and improves various symptoms of sexual dysfunction ( Brotto et al., 2009 ; Sengupta et al., 2013 ; Rakshith et al., 2017 ). Strengthens pelvic floor, improves symptoms of pelvic organ prolapse ( Sweta et al., 2018 ). Balance In Pranayama this technique is called Anulom Vilom. What is this method used for? BRAIN HEALTH : Creates balance and harmony in the left and right hemispheres of the brain TOXINS : Helps to remove toxins from the body NERVOUS SYSTEM : Rejuvenates the nervous system and reduces stress and anxiety CARDIAC HEALTH : Increases autonomic modulation of the heart or Heart Rate Variability (HRV) How to do the method: Hold your right nostril shut with either your finger or your hand. Inhale through your left nostril making sure you breathe deeply (belly rises) Hold your left nostril shut Open the right nostril and exhale Inhale through the right nostril keeping your left nostril shut Close the right nostril and exhale through the left nostril Repeat this cycle for at least ten times or at least 5 mins or longer. The more you do the easier it becomes. The Supporting Evidence-Based Research: Reduces blood pressure in cases of mild hypertension ( Goyal et al., 2014 ). Increases vital capacity (ability to take deeper breaths) ( Bal, 2010 ). Improves lung function: Comparable to the lung function of athletes ( Prakash et al., 2007) . Improves respiratory function ( Kumar, 2013 ). Encourages rehabilitation from coronary artery disease ( Yadav et al., 2009 ). Improves visual reaction time and information processing ( Dhadse & Fadia, 2013 ). Improves symptoms of hypothyroidism ( Swami et al., 2010 ). Improves auditory reaction time ( Dhadse & Fadia, 2016 ). AUM Chanting And Toning In Pranayama, this technique is called Omkar Pranayama. According to the ancient Yogic texts, AUM is the sacred sound of creation. There is physiological evidence to show the benefits of chanting AUM: When you make a toning sound for an extended length of time, you are extending your exhale. Exhaling for longer than you inhale reduces stress and helps you to relax by activating the parasympathetic nervous system. Extending a tone stimulates the cerebral cortex, which calms the hypothalamus and even our pain receptors. This explains why it helps to shout or scream when you get hurt! The extended exhale combined with the vibration of the sound you’re making, activates your parasympathetic nervous system and stimulates your vagus nerve. This helps to reduce inflammation, stress, and anxiety in your body. The FDA (Food and Drug Administration) has approved a technique called Vagus Nerve Stimulation, which stimulates the vagus nerve using electrical impulses. It is being used successfully in reducing epileptic seizures, reducing depression, and reducing chronic pain. The Yogis were definitely on to something! The Yogis are not the only people who chant single tones like AUM . Tibetan monks, tuvan throat singers of Mongolia, and various other tribal cultures sing in single tones too. Did you know that AUM is actually 3 separate syllables ? Each of these tones creates a vibration in a different area of the body, which becomes deeply meditative when repeated: Aaaa = Stomach/Abdomen Uuuu = Heart/Chest/Throat Mmmm = Brain/Pineal/Pituitary Gland This toning sequence can stimulate the endocrine glands and energy centres of these areas of your body, restoring and revitalising the cells and organs. This is important for optimal health and well-being. The highest tone of “Mmmm” stimulates your cortical functions and the pineal and pituitary glands. This is also where the third eye chakra is located. Benefits of AUM Decrease inflammation in the body Reduces stress Improve concentration and increase focus Enter a meditative state for deep relaxation Aid in self healing The SOMA AUM Meditation With this exercise you will flow naturally into the alpha state and your third eye chakra will begin to be activated. This is where your pineal gland is located. In many ancient cultures the pineal gland is considered to be “the seat of the soul”, and this AUM meditation can be used to enhance the activity of the pineal gland. This allows you to connect with the divine and the universal consciousness. Deep meditation in this state enables you to receive divine inspiration, heightened creativity and divine knowledge as well as receiving multiple health benefits. Step 1: Sit comfortably, with your back straight (but not uncomfortably so), in an upright position. Place your hands facing upwards in your lap, keeping your arms unfolded. Take a slow, deep inhale. As you exhale, relax the tension around your forehead and eyebrows, around your jaw and throat, around your neck, shoulders, and upper back. Relax all the tension in your body from the top of your head to the end of your toes. Step 2: Bring your awareness from any past or future point, and reflect that all is now. All is folded into one eternal now moment. Close your eyes, and again release all the tension in your body with one big exhalation. Step 3: Now take a deep diaphragmatic breath, making sure your abdomen rises as you breath, for a count of 4 seconds. On your out breath chant the sacred sound of AUM for a count of 12 seconds, focussing 4 seconds at a time on each syllable. The sound should be totally smooth, with no breaks, stops, or stutters. Bring your awareness to each area of your body associated with the syllable you’re sounding. Repeat the pattern continuously for 5-10 minutes. Observe how you feel more relaxed and calm at the end of it. Step 4: For the next 7-10 minutes after the AUM meditation, visualise yourself healthy, happy, and vibrant. Clearly picture yourself in full health, free to do all of the things you truly want to do. Imagine the scene in great detail. Engage all of your senses and consider even the smallest details. What would you be wearing? What can you smell? What would you be doing? Who would you be doing it with? What emotions are you feeling? Who are you with? You may use the AUM meditation at any time to help you reduce stress and anxiety, and to reap the long-term benefits of AUM chanting. The visualisation aspect helps magnify the healing effects when carried out after the meditation. Once you start practising AUM chanting regularly, you might find yourself addicted to it! SOMA Toning Repeat the same meditation as above but play around with different tones that vibrate in different areas of your body. You will notice that higher pitches and more humm like sounds will vibrate your face, head, and upper body. Lower pitches and deeper tones will vibrate lower regions of your body like chest and abdomen. Also play with Oooh’s and Aaaah’s. Which feels best for you? The secret is to find the tone that resonates with you the most. You will have a feeling of pleasure, relaxation, and an instinctive knowing that you have found your tone. The Supporting Evidence-Based Research: Reduces blood pressure in cases of mild hypertension ( Goyal et al., 2014 ). Increased melatonin production ( Harinath et al., 2004 ). Increased heart and lung health ( Harinath et al., 2004 ; Mooventhan & Khode, 2014 ). Reduces stress ( Gurjar et al., 2009 ; Das & Anand, 2012 ; Bhatt & Gupta, 2013 ). Helps clear the mind and create a meditative state ( Telles et al., 1995 ; Gurjar & Ladhake, 2008 ; Gurjar et al., 2009 ). Encourages weight loss and a healthy body mass index ( Mooventhan & Khode, 2014 ). Improves asthma symptoms ( Saxena & Saxena, 2009 ). Lowers heart rate ( Telles et al., 1995 ; Gurjar et al., 2009 ). Balances the nervous system and creates internal harmony at a cellular level (like heart coherence) ( Gurjar et al., 2009 ). May be an effective preventative measure to avoid diabetes ( Bhagat & Singh, 2017 ). Heart Coherence Training Heart Coherence training harnesses the energy of your heart to balance your thoughts, emotions, and harmonise the physiological functions of your body. It can help you achieve a calm, neutral, and focused state for clear thinking. It will help you release stress and work through emotions like frustration and anger, giving you mental clarity and well-being in a matter of minutes. Your heart is the primary generator of rhythm in your body. It also produces the largest electromagnetic field of any organ in your body – even your brain! There is more and more evidence to show that our hearts contain nerve cells, neurons, and can even store memories. A quick Google search will bring up many accounts of heart transplant stories where the recipient can recall memories from the donor’s life. Your heart influences processes in your brain that control your nervous system, cognitive function, and emotions. Your heart has a conscious intelligence of its own. When you are in a state of heart coherence you are at your optimum physiological functioning, which is similar to being in a flow state. Some of the things that you will experience when you are in coherence are: Feeling confident, focused, positive, and calm. More energy and motivation. Improved hand-eye coordination, mental functioning, faster reaction times. Negative emotions like fear, frustration, anxiety, irritation or anger can bring you out of coherence and drain you of energy. Coherence training can prevent them from escalating and getting out of control, thus preventing harm to your body. Coherence occurs when you focus your intention on your heart and breathe deeply, smoothly, and rhythmically so that every inhale and exhale is equally spaced in a perfect groove. Breathing at a musical rhythm of 58.6 bpm makes you breathe 7.8 breaths per minute, exactly synchronizing the rhythm of your body to the Schumann Resonance: 7.83hz. The Schumann Resonance is the natural pulse of our planet Earth, which also corresponds to low alpha brainwaves in the brain. In the online version of this course, there are 3 downloads available. When you access them, follow these steps: Focus your attention on your heart. Slip on your headphones and press play on the Heart Coherence Trainer Audio. Breathe in time with the audio using the drum beat as your guide. This drum beat is synced to the Schumann Resonance. Inhale on the first beat. Exhale on the next beat. Your breathing should be slow, smooth, and deep into your heart. To do this, imagine your nostrils are in your heart. Conjure up feelings of love, gratitude, and joy. Perhaps it will help you to recall a happy memory. Or, maybe you’d prefer to think about a dear friend, a family member, a loved one, or even a pet! If you have important goals you want to accomplish, focus on the feeling you would have if you were to successfully reach these goals. If you want to overcome a negative emotion, focus on the opposite of that emotion. So if you feel fear, focus on its opposite: courage. Breathing In Beats Of course simply breathing in beats offers health benefits! Breathing in beats creates heart coherence. Heart coherence is the ideal state for healing, as discussed in previous sections. Check out these exercises below for creating heart coherence: Breathe In Heartbeats Sit comfortably in an upright position with your back straight. Place your finger on your pulse and start counting your own natural heartbeat. Do full diaphragmatic rhythmic breathing to the count of 6 heartbeats on the inhale and 6 heartbeats on the exhale for 5 minutes. If your resting heart rate is around 60 bpm, then the frequency of each breath cycle will be 0.1 Hz because your heart would beat on average at 1 beat per second. Entraining your breath to this frequency is the sweet spot for coherence. You can also change the I:E ratio to 4:8 or 6:12 or gradually increase the exhale time till you are comfortable with it. Use a heart coherence monitoring app and you will see that you quickly get into coherence. Breathe In Drum Beats: Do the same exercise as above, but switch out your heartbeat for music produced at either 60 bpm or 120 bpm. Breathe in for 4 beats and out for 4 beats to music that is 60 bpm to create heart coherence. Breathe in for 2 beats and out for 4 beats to music that is 120 bpm. You will quickly switch from sympathetic to parasympathetic nervous system dominance and experience feelings of euphoric bliss. Breathe In Flow State Beats Exercise During the day, while you’re going about your normal business or you’re working, play some beat-driven music you enjoy that has about 100-120 bpm. Bring your awareness to the rhythm of the music and breathe in beats with an I:E ratio of either 2:4 or 4:8 smoothly and consistently. Keep your awareness on the beat for the first few minutes, but then gradually move your awareness back to whatever you are doing. With regular practice your breathing will synchronise to the music automatically, with small fluctuations when you get an inspired thought. Whenever you lose focus on your work, bring your awareness back to your breath and breathe in beats. With this method you will be able to enter flow state more frequently and more naturally. You’ll also be able to stay in flow state for longer. You can use a HRV app that measures coherence to see how long you stay in coherence even when you get distracted from your work as a way to monitor your progress.

  • Your Breath is our life, your life is our breath.

    Our Breath is our life, our life is our breath. Craig has worked with the breath for most of his life, he is an Asthmatic and in his early years had many trips to hospital with asthma attacks. He taught himself to breath differently in his early thirties and has not had a trip to hospital since, he is still asthmatic, but it has little bearing on his day to day life. “I take about 5 breaths per minute, sometimes 4 if I’m busy, ‘This offers clear thought and a whole lot less stress” In his healing work, it became apparent early on that if he could slow the breathing of his clients they would respond to the energetic work a lot more strongly. Enabling them to heal and move forward quicker. Craig is a Soma Breath Instructor and Facilitator , and along with his own style developed over 15 years of shamanic and bio-energetic work uses these techniques to enable his clients to develop positive breathing habits, and along with healing bringing them into a space of strength, embodiment and joy, as they feel stronger and more alive than ever.

With Breath work, he has also seen that he can assist dozens of people at the one time in group sessions, working with corporate sessions and community groups. His individual sessions as well as group sessions producing amazing results. So, Whats in it for me you may ask? Craig’s Soma, Breathwork techniques are designed to balance our body. The nervous system where we tend to mostly operate in sympathetic mode(fight or flight) keep us in a state of busy and anxiousness, preventing us from being in the flow and enjoying life. During theses sessions YOU will become more relaxed, not just like in a quiet time, or in meditation, but an extended relaxed where your body enters into a change. We trigger turn the switch on the parasympathetic system. Where you not only get to rest and relax. But you begin to heal and grow. Your ‘Happiness Hormones are triggered allowing you to feel the joy of life, as your endocrine and immune system are triggered to open up. Using Soma techniques your brainwave achieve faster gamma wave ‘movement’ It is responsible for cognitive functioning, learning, memory, and information processing. ... In optimal conditions gamma waves help with attention, focus, binding of senses (smell, sight, and hearing), consciousness, mental processing, and perception. Soma Breath can bring about this in minutes! When you practice more and more you will there is the potential to release natural DMT stored in our Cerebral spinal fluid. In Soma with regular practice and breath retention, you can even release the those dormant stem cells in your body, to assist with healing and growth.

  • Elemental Breathwork. Shamanic Breathwork Journey. Water Element.

    Imagine, just for a moment, a moment in time where you meet your guiding energy. A moment, when you see with so much clarity and power, the very depths of the work you do and can do. Well this is opportunity opened up for me on Thursday this week. I’m in Bali attending a workshop on Shamanic Breathwork. In some ways I’m wondering why I am here. I use breathwork techniques every day in my healing work. However I have been guided, pushed even to delve deeper to learn more and most importantly take time out to heal my own wounding, to visit the sacred world of elemental healing, the Orisa, my guides, the magnificence of the elements that I work with on a daily basis. I’m excited going into this journey, it has been a while since I have spent time nurturing my own needs. Something I encourage others to do every day, yet we forget about ourselves. Water, Yemonja Olokun, Yemonja the womb of the world, Olokun, The darkest depths, these are the primary elements I work with in my healing work. Yemonja is the Mother, fierce powerful, protective, offering rebirth and life yet assisting to destroy that which is no longer of value to you. Olokun, the depths of the ocean, of our own psych. The darkness and the place where we hold onto pain and lessons of wisdom that adversely effect our lives, yet those lessons most valuable to us to pull up into the light to be realised and released. It is an hour session, I am being watched over by my love Ivana, I am safe, nurtured and feel protected. A sense of wonder and excitement as to what will unfold. Breathwork is like that, as we pry open those energies we are holding onto within, it searches through our own body to find the shadow, to bring forward for you to learn from….or not! Within 5 minutes of the beginning It seems I am pulled down through the ocean, through the safety and light of Yemonja, down, down into the darkest depths of Olokun. And what an amazing gift it was. I have heard that we do not know how deep the deepest parts of the ocean are. I believe that, yet on this day I am shown something wondrous. Olokun shows me as I twist and turn through the depths, releasing my own shadow and seeing power and hope, flexibility. Light and darkness together, working within to create stability, love and wisdom. Healing and releasing without plant medicines, without pharmaceuticals. We can plunge into our the elements and depths of life and come through the experience with such amazing clarity. Olokun showed me that there is always light. Light is love the purest form of healing energy. It is not fluffy bunnies nor is it easy, but it is worthwhile searching and diving into. Olokun, lead the way down forcefully, it was without choice, but with absolute trust I took this journey. I was shown my own procrastination, my own wounding, and as my container, my body released There was a primal yell, a roar of self empowerment and embodiment of who I truly am, what I can absolutely achieve and just as importantly, I was shown this is how I have always been guided when working with my own clients in their healing journey. Holding space as they empower themselves, seeing their own potential, and then realising it themselves. Without fear, changing their lives. Olokun showed me that even in those places we fear the most there is light. Light existed and exists during the dark, we just need to see it, to open to the possibility of healing, to trust, even when we have no inner faith, that we can heal. Imagine for a moment, being able to breath underwater, this is the paradigm of healing. To allow, to feel, to take that very first step, to live. We come from the womb, we are fed and looked after, all our needs are met and yet we don’t breath. Healing journeys with breathwork are like this, (in fact so are drum journeys, but more of that another time) We dive into the ocean of our lives into the waters of healing to be nurtured yet also to face our fears. So without fear, dive down through the azure waters cleansing, moving freely our needs met our safety assured. And then plunge deeper into the darkness, and see, know even that there is light there also. And as you release, as you see your own wounding grasp their lessons. Grow powerfully, not just manifesting great things and ecstatic healing but embodiment of who you truly are, where you can go and what you can achieve. And then, come to the surface of your life again through the waves, rebirthing if you like, stronger, clearer, healthier of mind and spirit and body. From sunrise to sunset, from the hours in between you are love and you are loved, there is light, power and incredible possibilities for you to trust yourself with. Imagine that! You have all you need all days. Breath light and life into your world, take a journey into the depths and finally release your core wounding. Creating a life worth living and sharing. Allow the waters to wash away your fears, destroy what no longer belongs with you and smile, breath and live. Without Fear, change your life. Ase. Craig. © Craig Davey 2019
